RAID is implemented using a RAID controller on the motherboard or on a RAID controller card. RAID is enabled in the BIOS.
It depends on which RAID you mean: software or hardware. For hardware RAID read manual for your motherboard, for software RAID read software help.
Hardware will be RAID PCIe / PCIx RAID hardware controller but The hardware RAID is often the motherboard RAID controller or a separate RAID card.
Check with your motherboard manual (if it has onboard RAID), or check with your RAID controller's manual to see if it supports setting up single drives and not having a raid configuration.
Your motherboard may need to be changed when your CPU is upgraded.

All hard drives in an array should be identical in brand, size, speed, and other features. Also, if Windows is to be installed on a hard drive that is part of a RAID array, RAID must be implented before windoes is installed. As with installing any hardware, read the documentation that comes with the motherboard or RAID controller.
You hardware has to support RAID technology, read the manual for your motherboard. If you have Linux you can have software RAID which is slower than hardware but still can be used to for mirroring, striping and so on. In the manual should described how to create RIAD (0, 1 and so on). You can have RAID software for windows too, but it's expensive and perfomance is not that great.
